Resumo
Brevipalpus phoenicis (Geijskes, 1939) (Tenuipalpidae) é importante em cafeeiro (Coffea arabica L.) por ser vetor do vírus da mancha-anular, responsável por queda de folhas e má qualidade da bebida do café, e Oligonychus ilicis (McGregor, 1917) (Tetranychidae) é importante nessa mesma cultura por reduzir a área foliar de fotossíntese. Ácaros da família Phytoseiidae são eficientes predadores dos ácaros-praga. Objetivou-se com este trabalho estudar o controle dos ácaros-praga com spiromesifen, inseticida-acaricida de efeito fisiológico que atua inibindo a síntese de lipídeos, e o impacto desse sobre fitoseídeos, tendo como padrões o acaricida hexythiazox, que atua como regulador de crescimento, e os acaricidas neurotóxicos fenbutatin oxide e azocyclotin. Em bioensaios de laboratório, em folhas de cafeeiro, foram comparados os efeitos ovicida, tópico, residual, tópico mais residual. A seletividade fisiológica para os fitoseídeos Euseius alatus DeLeon, 1966; Euseius citrifolius Denmark & Muma, 1970; Amblyseius herbicolus (Chant, 1959) e Iphiseiodes zuluagai Denmark & Muma, 1972, foi avaliada pelo teste residual em superfície de vidro. Em casa-de-vegetação, avaliou-se a persistência dos produtos por até 30 dias. Em campo, avaliou-se a eficiência apenas no controle de O. ilicis. Spiromesifen mostrou eficiente ação ovicida para B. phoenicis e O. ilicis, em ovos de qualquer idade. Em geral, os efeitos tópico e residual associados melhoraram a eficiência no controle das fases pós-embrionárias de ambas as espécies. Spiromesifen apresentou seletividade fisiológica aos ácaros predadores estudados.
Brevipalpus phoenicis (Geijskes, 1939) (Tenuipalpidae) is an important coffee (Coffea arabica L.) pest-mite, because it is the vector of coffee ring spot virus, which is responsible for leaf fall and bad quality of the coffee beverage. Oligonychus ilicis (McGregor, 1917) (Tetranychidae) is also important because it reduces leaf photosynthesis area. Phytoseiidae mites are efficient predators of the phytophagous mites. The objective of this work was to study the control of the pest-mites with spiromesifen, a physiological effect insecticide-acaricide, that acts on lipogenesis inhibition, and its impact on phytoseiids, using hexythiazox as patterns acaricide, that acts as a growth regulator, and the neurotoxic acaricides fenbutatin oxide and azocyclotin. The ovicidal, topical, residual, topical plus residual effects were studied in bioassays using detached leaves. The physiological selectivity for the phytoseiids Euseius alatus DeLeon 1966; Euseius citrifolius Denmark & Muma, 1970; Amblyseius herbicolus (Chant, 1959) and Iphiseiodes zuluagai Denmark & Muma, 1972 was evaluated in a glass surface residual test. The persistence of the products used was evaluated in a greenhouse for 30 days. Field-tests evaluated only the efficiency of the O. ilicis control. Spiromesifen showed efficient ovicidal action to both mite species on eggs of every age. In general, the associated topical plus residual effects improved the efficiency of control of post-embryonic phases of both species. Spiromesifen presented physiological selectivity to the predatory mites studied.
